Our Priests

Fr. Michael Murphy, Pastor

I was ordained a priest on January 3, 1987. I was previously assigned to St. Ferdinand for two years (1996-1998) after returning from missionary work in Bolivia. My most recent assignment was Pastor of Our Lady, Queen of Peace in House Springs. I look forward to reconnecting with the parishioners I knew previously and getting to know all the parishioners of St. Ferdinand.

Fr. David Rauch, Sr. Associate Pastor

After serving as a Pastor for many years, I am now entering a semi-retired status and will be your Senior Associate Pastor. I come to St, Ferdinand from Our Lady of Providence in Crestwood to continue my ministry serving the Lord. I have been a priest since June 13, 1970.
